Mama, I Thought Only Black People Were Bad was a poster project by the Negro Art Collective, which was presented during July of 1995.

The posters featured the following bold quotation from popular scholar Charles Murray, author of The Bell Curve: “In raw numbers, European-American whites are the ethnic group with the most illegitimate children, most people on welfare, most unemployed men, and most arrests for serious crimes.”
